Rhodes is the largest of the Dodecanese islands with layers of history that begs to be discovered. Its cultural makeup is a unique whorl of Roman and Ottoman influences. And it’s home to the Colossus of Rhodes, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. You’ll find traces of the city’s former life as a Byzantine trading post in the old Medieval town, where you can get lost in its intricate network of streets and alleyways. But history isn’t its only lure - the island is also known for its endless sunshine, making it a great year-round destination.
